A 20-year-old East La penitence, Georgetown resident is now a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC), nursing a gunshot wound to the right side of his face.
Linton Trotman, of Lot 193 Middle Road, La Penitence was shot around 04:00 a.m yesterday by two men on bicycles while he was on his way home from a dance in Albouystown.
Yesterday, the injured Trotman told Kaieteur News that he and his cousin went to a dance Thursday night. His cousin subsequently left the party with his partner.
“After he left with he girl, I decided to walk home because the dance wasn’t far from where I am living,” Trotman said.
He added that while on Cooper Street, Albouystown, he noticed two men on bicycles approaching him. “Both of them were on bicycles but at that point I didn’t think they were going to rob me.”
The 20-year-old who claims to be working in the interior said that when the men got closer to him, one of them pulled a gun and fired a shot.
“After I fall, one of them asked me if I get shoot and when I said yes, he told me not to look at them while they were going through my pocket. They even searched my boots but they didn’t get anything,” the injured man said.
Kaieteur News was told that the men escaped, leaving the wounded man on the road.
